I was walking. School had just let out. The snow was knee deep. I was returning from the market and as I passed each of them in the road I asked them, 'wouldn't you rather face traffic and the glare blinded driver who DIDN'T SEE YOU?'
70% changed sides of the road.
There were a pair who thought I was quite amusing and giggled as they walked on presenting their backsides to traffic.
High school kids. They were never taught or never learned. If a car driver fails to see you, it will be messy for him, but fatal to you. The 2 girls that persevered, they giggled and walked on, Inshallah.
